As you have two DSL connections with two DSL 'modems' why not put two NICs in the FreeBSD box and attach one to each DSL connection? Make what ever servers you are running (apache etc) listen for requests on both (or all) NICs and I think it's job done! DNS round robin will give some element of load balancing and the request should be serviced via the NIC and thus DSL circuit they were received from. As far as I can see, there is no easy way to dynamically shift loads from one NIC/DSL curcuit to the other. Guy -- -------------------------------------------------------------------- Guy Dawson I.T.
